THRIVE.ISH.ING!
My husband has a tendancy to use the wrong word in a sentence...or just come up with one on his own. We're all use to it and it doesn't hinder understanding what he means.
However he has now come up with a priceless word.
The other evening we were walking around the yard checking out the dozens of trees he's planted in the last 6 years. I happened to mention I didn't think the Smoke Trees were doing very well. At which point he looked at me incredulously and said "Are you kidding? They're THRIVEISHING!"
I see...I stand corrected. I immediately liked that word. It just says so much more than just plain old thriving.
I've decided that it's a much better goal to shoot for. I don't intend to live and thrive anymore. I intend to THRIVEISH! I suppose that would be the root, but it's hard to know. What I do know is that this little word seems to speak of unbridled exuberance...better than better. Exactly what I want in my life.
